The Wild Earth ‘Border Bolt’ is back! The famed Border Trails await with their twists and turns and ocean views. Whilst sure to test you, the camaraderie created with the out and back course is a great boost when the going gets tough!
There are 4 distance offerings: 6.6km, 13.5km, 22km and 31km, with increasing elements of trail running; the longer you go, the more trail (and hills) you get to enjoy! The 6.6km is all pavement, the 13.5km; a little taste of trail, the 22km a full meal and the 31km includes the infamous Strawberry Hill for dessert!

The Wild Earth ‘Border Bolt’ will also be Race 2 in the Trail Trips Triple Crown; also incorporating ‘In the Raw’ on May 31, 2026 and our flagship event; the Wild Earth Coastal High on Saturday August 29th, 2026. Enter all three races and receive a FREE Trail Trips backpack valued at over $100!
There is both a Short Course and Long Course series; with the Wild Earth ‘Border Bolt’ 22km event being the Short Course option; teamed up with the 15km Wild Earth ‘In the Raw’ and 28km Wild Earth ‘Coastal High Crunch’.
The Long Course Series will require you to run the 31km event at the Bolt, the 25km at ‘In the Raw’ and the Wild Earth ‘Coastal High 50’ in August! Be part of the fun and register TODAY!
Thanks for your interest, I hope to see you conquer the Border Trails.
